We understand that very little attention and/or funding is paid to railroad security by the Department of Homeland Security. Additionally, no security or terrorism training is given at this time. Hmmm...
We watched a program on public tv last week about the rise of Pirates on the open seas...how unsafe the oceans have become...how goverments are keeping this out of the public eye.
Should we be concerned about security and terrorism? Do any of you think about this while working at 3am out in the middle of nowhere?
Considering what kind of damage all that tonnage could do makes us ask this question. Railroads are transporting dangerous HAZMAT and we can only assume that potential terrorist types know this.
Could upper railroad management be in denial about National Railroad Security? Are they afraid of the cost to train people?
